Interfaith Thanksgiving Celebration theme asks for an ‘Amen’

East Cobb interfaith service: 'Embracing responsibility'
Clergy and speakers at the 2024 Interfaith Thanksgiving Service ham it up for the cameras. 

The 21st annual Interfaith Thanksgiving Celebration will take place Nov. 20 at Temple Kol Emeth in East Cobb, featuring music, messages and prayers involving more than 20 local faith communities.

This year’s theme is “Amen is Just the Beginning,” and according to organizers, it’s “a reminder that each of us needs convert our words and prayer into action.” (Here’s our report from the 2024 service.)

The service begins at 7 p.m. The doors open at 6:30 p.m., and online registration is required at this link. A clear-bag policy also will be in place. Parking is available at Temple Kol Emeth (1415 Old Canton Road) and across the street at Eastminster Presbyterian Church (3125 Sewell Mill Road).

The offering will benefit the Give-A-Gobble Campaign of Atlanta.

The service is familiar to those in the past, and with many participating congregations returning, representing the Jewish, Muslim, Roman Catholic, Baptist, Baha’i, Disciples of Christ, Hindu, Episcopal, Sikh, Mormon and Unitarian Universalist faiths.
